Oh, sorry about that. I should have built the patch on top of -mm instead.

I thought I was more or less the only user, but thanks for pointing that out.

The eeprom code in the r8169 driver from
2.6.23-rc8-mm2/git-r8169.patch looks fine, but I don't understand the
point of adding the size member to the eeprom struct in
eeprom_93cx6.h. Especially since no code change is made in
eeprom_93cx6.c.

Thanks,

/ magnus
